NOW: Ohio Speaker Matt Huffman says that he will evaluate proposals to limit the governor’s power on a case-by-case basis, but said it wouldn’t be related to the Democrats taking control.

SCOOP: After national Democrats offered to help out with Ohio's expensive redistricting fight, the GOP compromised.

But there was never any money, just a plot that would only be revealed after Dems won a majority of races.

#Browns injury designations for Sunday's game against the Saints:

QB Deshaun Watson - questionable
DT Maliek Collins - out

[Camryn Justice @camijustice]

#Browns QB Shedeur Sanders will start on Sunday against the Saints.

#Browns DT Maliek Collins was not at practice during the open portion today. He's missed all week with an elbow injury he sustained against the Steelers and an illness.

A look at #Browns QB Deshaun Watson back at practice for the first time this week after being placed in concussion protocol on Tuesday.

Watson will still need to be cleared from the protocol before returning to game action, and Shedeur Sanders will remain ready to start against the Saints should they rule out Watson.

I just asked Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine about possible Republican efforts to take away or lessen the powers of the governor prior to Gov-elect Dr. Amy Acton taking office in January. I asked if he would veto.

“No governor would sign.”

WET WEDNESDAY: Our first solid chance for rain returns. Plan for rain to arrive in our west region first & will spread east in the afternoon. Rain will be heavy at times. The evening commute could be slower. This rain will usher in cooler air for the end of the week.
